Rep. Rogers Supports Defending American Property Abroad Act

WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers (AL-03) released the following statement after House passage of the Defending American Property Abroad Act of 2026 : “I was proud to support the Defending American Property Abroad Act on the House Floor today. US companies must be able to conduct business in the world marketplace without fear of unlawful expropriation. This issue hits close to home for Alabama companies as the Mexican government continues its attempts to seize a port owned by Birmingham-based Vulcan Materials. This is just one example of the nightmare scenario many US-based companies face. Every day countries are allowed to seize American property undeterred, our country’s national and economic security is threatened. This legislation ensures protection for American companies as they operate throughout the Western Hemisphere, and I look forward to President Trump signing it into law.” ###
